Lesson Learned

Yeah
Just let it go
Baby you're my lesson learned
Sometimes God's greatest punishment is giving us exactly what we want
Threat Loca

You had me all stressing sitting there confessing my feelings
I even cried shed tears from my eyes
The only thing I ever asked you for was your time
And every second that you gave me you spent it telling me lies
I sent you flowers made the effort gave it everything I could
Told me I was good for you and playgirl I'm still good
Distance only matters when intentions aren't understood
But you never deserved me cuz you would have loved me like you should
I'd lay awake at night wondering what was wrong with me
Why I didn't deserve the truth after I gave you all of me
I know you were broken but you were capable of honesty
Then came my anxiety saying you never belonged to me
I felt defeated you went backwards and I got played
Or maybe it was my fault and I was the reason you were so afraid to climb
Me and you wrong place wrong time
But I'm on top of the world and I still can't get you off my mind

Baby you're my lesson learned
Never again will I waste my time while you play pretend
Touched my heart then you messed with my head
And I still don't know why
Why you lit my flame then you watched me burn
Led me to believe you were the one I deserved
When you drop your pride baby mark my words
One day you'll realize I'm your lesson learned

For two years you told me what I wanted to hear
I cut you off twice and even through the blood sweat and tears
Somehow you never went away and baby that's what got me
But the harder I fought for you the more you didn't want me
You told me you were toxic
You told me you were bad
But I couldn't forget the love you showed me when I lost my dad
You're a real one and I can't deny it
I'm in love with you and every day I know you fight it cuz I'm too much for you
Baby I trusted you
Gave you something I never give
Opened up my heart and soul I wanted this relationship
But you was on some other shit and I finally had enough of it
I'm trying to get out of the hood
That's the way you choose to live
I met your family and that night you got drunk
Said I wasn't right for you and you couldn't help who you love
So every time that I miss you I tell myself the same thing
I can't help that I love someone who's the last thing I need

Baby you're my lesson learned
Never again will I waste my time while you play pretend
Touched my heart then you messed with my head
And I still don't know why
Why you lit my flame then you watched me burn
Led me to believe you were the one I deserved
When you drop your pride baby mark my words
One day you'll realize I'm your lesson learned

It took me a while to fully recognize my worth
So I left without a goodbye even though it hurt me
Baby your heart is beautiful but lots of anger in your soul
And despite your intelligence that liquor kills your mind control
You and I are both broken
Difference is I'm trying to heal and you ran back to comfort
You always have and always will
But I pray you and the kids find every happiness there is
And you teach them integrity instead of broken promises
Every once in a while I'll get impulsive and I'll text you
Because part of me holds on to the days when I first met you
I pray you love yourself you trust your heart and free your mind
But most of all I pray one day you stop pressing rewind
Our time was short and sweet but deep and genuine and I cherish it
My heart is made of crystal I just pray that you take care of it
My loyalty will never change
I'm solid without question
The love you gave me proved that I finally learned my lesson

Baby you're my lesson learned
Never again will I waste my time while you play pretend
Touched my heart then you messed with my head
And I still don't know why
Why you lit my flame then you watched me burn
Led me to believe you were the one I deserved
When you drop your pride baby mark my words
One day you'll realize I'm your lesson learned

I'm your lesson learned
Baby your my lesson learned
I just gotta let you go
Because the hardest part about loving somebody is not knowing why they don't love you back
Real talk
